Porn in the Military
Well this has just recently appeared on the news, critics are now getting on the pentagon's case for allowing porn to be distributed on military bases. From what I have seen on such bases this is completely true with the exception of internet porn which can get a person in trouble. What do you guys think about this, keep the soldiers away from that godawful stuff? or let them relieve a problem that has plauged military men since the beginning of war itself? Your opinions please.

I have never had a problem with pornography, and I don't see why soldiers should be treated differently in this situation. EVERYONE has looked at porn, it's a natural curiosity, and just because soldiers have been trained in discipline does not mean they have no sexual frustration.
Give the boys the porn.

It should be illegal not to look at porn.

I'd like to see them TRY to take away their porn. Not looking at porn is Un-American! They fight for our right to look at smutty things, they should be able to have a dirty mag or porno in their barracks as well!

This man speaks the truth.
Or, at least, any country that implemented this law would have my full support

If they're giving their lives for the welfare of people that they have no obligations to help, they should have access to smut. It's only fair.

Porn. It's good for the children.

Yeah but you know the power of the extreme conservative christian masses. I'm sure the televangelists are all over this.

When my father was in the military, the base we were stationed at would get some fun nights with..I don't know what the word would be. Exotic dancers is the best word since I don't recall in any of the pictures I have of those events any real nudity.
Anyways, I don't agree with the Pennies decision to take away the porn. Maggot says it better. Giving them their porn is just one of the many things we owe those who give their lives for total strangers.

I know how the military works, my life revolves around and exists because of the military I know how repressed it is. I never said I was against it, I merely posted both views of it.

Yeah. I've been there and done that. I dunno weather to feel sorry that your life revolves around it or not. If it sucks for you, I'm sorry.

Eh it has it's ups and downs, though I don't like how it pulled me away from Tacoma, but I'm hoping it will repent and send me back.

I agree with Wormboy. Anyway, looking at porn is better than impregnating the locals.

Looking at porn is better than getting an STD from a local..
Unless of course it's GAY porn, which the government MUST forbid.. THAT'S just unacceptable.

If you weren't being sarcastic, that's pathetic.

Sweet sarcasm . . . lost in the typing. Personally, I think gay porn is fine; better than all those blondes with watermelon sized bazonkas sitting on peoples faces.

There are far more important issues than porn.
Like maybe...anything?

Why? Isn't it unfair to accomodate one group's sexual preferences and not the other?
